This Japanese lantern chopstick rest features a red lantern which is often displayed as signs in popular bars and pubs in Japan.

When you walk through a bar area in Japan, you will find Izakaya (Japanese-style pubs) with red lanterns hanging in front of their stores, which are designed to serve low-price drinks. These lanterns have been in use since the Edo period.

The chopstick rests are made at the Ihoshiro Kiln in Mizunami City, Gifu Prefecture. Their craftsmen make chopstick rests one by one, not using mass production or machining methods.

In Japan, chopstick rests are an indispensable piece for table setting. Although it is a small tableware, you can express your personality by choosing a motif that suits the season or a festive event.

Japanese lantern chopstick rest

This is a cute chopstick rest and very functional. Out of all the rests I purchased from Musubikiln, this is probably the most biggest one. If you are looking for a hefty rest, this is a good option!
